WIP Labor Distribution

You use this program to generate a report of ledger entries for labor posting transactions created within the Labor Posting or Job Issues programs.

The report reflects details of the sub-module transactions posted to the GL Journal, grouped by the GL journal number. It is generated from the ledger journals created by the WIP Labor GL Integration program.

The report can be run at any time and as often as required.

Report Details

  • The term *Multiple* in place of a GL code indicates that, in the sub ledger, a single journal was referenced to more than one control record.

  • All journals/entries (whether previously printed or not) are included in the report according to the report options indicated. The Reprint column on the report indicates whether the journal/entry was previously printed.

Notes and warnings

Restrictions and limits

  • The report cannot be generated if your Work in Progress integration method is defined as Not linked to GL - no distribution report (General Ledger Integration).

Reprinting

  • You can only reprint distribution entries for as long you are retaining labor posting journals (Work In Progress Setup).

    In SYSPRO 6.1 the Journal and Distribution entries tables/files were combined and the Distribution entries tables/files were removed. Therefore, the number of months you select to retain the journals also determines the number of months for which the distribution entries prior to SYSPRO 6.1 are retained.

  • Only the current period can be reprinted when the Work in Progress module is not integrated to General Ledger in Detail or Summary (General Ledger Integration).
